Adds scanGitAttributes(repoDir) — pure function that parses
.gitattributes after a sandboxed clone and returns the
{filter,diff,merge} driver entries that would run on checkout. The
clone CLI prints each entry as a "MEDIUM" stderr advisory followed by
a recommendation to verify the smudge/clean command before moving the
clone outside the sandbox.
Why: filter drivers execute arbitrary shell during checkout (smudge
runs on read, clean on write). Even with the existing sandboxed clone,
downstream consumers that re-checkout files outside the sandbox can be
exploited. Surfacing the directive list lets the caller decide whether
to proceed.
Out-of-scope: in-line content of the smudge command is not analysed —
the advisory is for human review, not automatic blocking.
Tests:
- tests/lib/git-clone-gitattributes.test.mjs (8 cases): LFS-style,
custom driver, missing/empty/comment-only files, line-number
tracking, inline-comment stripping, unreadable path graceful return.
Adds rot13 to the variantSet built in scanForInjection(), so
imperative phrases hidden as rot13 inside code comments still hit
the existing CRITICAL/HIGH/MEDIUM pattern arrays.
normalizeForScan() already covers base64, hex, URL, and HTML decoding
in a 3-iteration loop — those are NOT duplicated here. rot13 is the
only genuinely new variant: it is its own inverse and not part of any
NIST/Unicode normalization spec, so it has to be applied explicitly.
Threshold: only inputs >40 chars enter the rot13 pass, to suppress
false positives on accidental letter-shifts in tokens, ids, and short
identifiers. Variants are deduplicated against the existing set so
matchers do not run twice.
3 new tests in injection-patterns.test.mjs (rot13 detection, sub-40
char suppression, plaintext path still green). Total 168 tests pass.
Closes E3 in critical-review-2026-04-20.md.
Critical-review §4 E16 finding: pre-v7.2.0 homoglyph normalization fired
ONLY for the MEDIUM-advisory "obfuscation present" signal. Pattern
matchers in scanForInjection compared against raw + decoded variants
only — they did NOT compare against a fold-normalized variant. As a
result, "ignоre previous instructions" (Cyrillic о, U+043E) bypassed
the CRITICAL "ignore previous" pattern.
Two coordinated edits:
scanners/lib/string-utils.mjs
- Adds HOMOGLYPH_MAP (frozen) — surgical Cyrillic/Greek → Latin map.
~25 entries focused on injection-vocabulary letters
(a, e, o, c, p, x, y, i, j, s, l, A, E, O, C, P, X, Y, T).
- Adds foldHomoglyphs(s) — pipeline: NFKC → apply HOMOGLYPH_MAP.
NFKC handles Mathematical Alphanumeric (U+1D400 block), fullwidth
Latin (U+FF21 block), ligatures, width variants.
Excluded by design from HOMOGLYPH_MAP:
- Latin Extended (æ, ø, å, é, è, ñ, ü, ö, ä, ç, ß, þ, ð) — legitimate
Norwegian/German/French/Spanish letters. Map them and we false-positive
on every non-English source file.
- Greek letters not visually overlapping (β, γ, δ, ...)
- Cyrillic letters not visually overlapping (б, г, д, ж, ...)
scanners/lib/injection-patterns.mjs
- scanForInjection now builds a 4-variant set: raw, normalized,
folded(raw), folded(normalized). Set deduplication skips redundant
identical variants. Existing dedup-by-label (seenLabels Set) prevents
double-counts when the same pattern matches in multiple variants.
- foldHomoglyphs added to the imports.
Tests: +27 cases in tests/lib/string-utils-homoglyph.test.mjs:
- 6 Cyrillic → Latin (lowercase, uppercase, multiple substitutions,
Palochka U+04CF)
- 3 Greek → Latin
- 2 NFKC normalization (Math Bold, Fullwidth)
- 8 preserves-non-confusable (Norwegian æøå, German umlauts, French
accents, Spanish ñ, emoji, CJK, Arabic/Hebrew)
- 3 edge cases (empty, null/undefined, idempotency)
- 5 scanForInjection integration (Cyrillic ignore, Cyrillic Assistant,
Norwegian non-trigger, benign "ignore" comment, mixed Cyrillic+Greek)
Test-development found: U+1D5DC is "I" not "A" (test pin caught my
codepoint mistake — fixed during dev).
Suite: 1617 → 1644 (+27). All green.
Critical-review §4 E1 finding: pre-v7.2.0 the Unicode-stego detector
(`containsUnicodeTags`) covered only U+E0001-E007F (Tag block). Private
Use Areas — also invisible in most terminals and surviving normalization
— were not detected. Attackers could encode payloads in PUA codepoints
that pass through `scanForInjection` undetected.
Coverage extended to:
- U+E0001-E007F Unicode Tag block (existing — DeepMind kat. 1)
- U+F0000-FFFFD Supplementary PUA-A (NEW — E1)
- U+100000-10FFFD Supplementary PUA-B (NEW — E1)
Detection-only for PUA: PUA characters have NO standard ASCII mapping,
so `decodeUnicodeTags` leaves them unchanged. Detection alone is
sufficient — `scanForInjection` emits HIGH on any presence, regardless
of decoded content.
Function name `containsUnicodeTags` preserved for back-compat. All
existing call sites (injection-patterns.mjs:259, etc.) work unchanged.
Semantically the function is now "containsHiddenUnicode".
Tests: +21 cases in tests/lib/string-utils-hidden-unicode.test.mjs:
- 5 Tag-block regression guards
- 4 PUA-A range cases (start, just-inside, end, buried-in-ASCII)
- 3 PUA-B range cases
- 5 boundary cases (gap U+E0080-EFFFF, U+10FFFE noncharacter, emoji,
CJK, Latin Extended — all must be FALSE)
- 4 decodeUnicodeTags passthrough cases (PUA-A unchanged, PUA-B
unchanged, Tag block still decodes, mixed Tag+PUA)
Suite: 1596 → 1617 (+21). All green.
Critical-review §2 B7 finding: pure Levenshtein <=2 misses the most common
modern typosquat pattern — popular-name + token-injection suffix. Examples:
lodash → lodash-utils (edit distance 6, not flagged pre-B7)
react → react-helper (edit distance 7, not flagged pre-B7)
express → express-wrapper (edit distance 8, not flagged pre-B7)
Three coordinated edits:
scanners/lib/string-utils.mjs
- Adds tokenize(name): string[] splits on -/_, lowercases
- Adds tokenOverlap(a, b): number intersection.size / min(|a|,|b|)
- Adds TYPOSQUAT_SUSPICIOUS_TOKENS frozen list of common typosquat
suffixes. Excludes language-extension tokens (js, jsx, ts, tsx) — the
v7.0.0 allowlist contains `tsx` as a legit package and including the
same token in the suspicious set creates a contradiction. Caught by
the new allowlist-intersection-guard test. Also excludes 'pro'
(legitimate edition marker).
scanners/dep-auditor.mjs + scanners/supply-chain-recheck.mjs
- New checkTyposquatTokenOverlap() helper — fires AFTER Levenshtein 1/2
branches, only when:
1. popular package's tokens ⊆ declared name's tokens (strict superset)
2. declared name has at least one suspicious suffix
3. popular package is in topCutoff window
All three conditions required — conservative by design. Allowlist
precedence preserved (existing 22 npm + 13 PyPI entries always pass).
MEDIUM severity, NOT block. New finding title prefix:
"Possible typosquatting via token-overlap".
Tests: +21 cases across two new files
- tests/lib/string-utils-tokens.test.mjs (15) — tokenize, tokenOverlap,
TYPOSQUAT_SUSPICIOUS_TOKENS frozen contract, allowlist-intersection
guard (caught the tsx conflict on first run)
- tests/scanners/dep-token-overlap.test.mjs (7) — integration via
in-memory tmpdir fixtures: lodash-utils flagged, react-helper flagged,
express-wrapper flagged, lodash exact NOT flagged, allowlist tools
(knip/tsx/nx/rimraf) NOT flagged, react-router-dom (no suspicious
suffix) NOT flagged, react itself (equal token set, not superset)
NOT flagged.
Existing dep.test.mjs and supply-chain-recheck.test.mjs unchanged —
all green (149 → 149 regression guard).
Suite: 1570 → 1591 (+21). All green.
Critical-review §2 B3 finding: `riskScore({info: N}) = 0` silently masks
info-volume findings. The behavior was correct (info is scoring-inert by
design) but undocumented. Operators reading a report with N info findings
had no way to know they contribute zero to verdict/band.
Three coordinated edits:
- scanners/lib/severity.mjs JSDoc — explicit "Info severity" subsection
spelling out: scoring-inert, surfaced in owaspCategorize aggregates,
treat as observability telemetry not verdict input. @param updated to
mark info as accepted but ignored.
- CLAUDE.md v7.0.0 risk-score-v2 line — one-sentence anchor pointing to
severity.mjs JSDoc.
- tests/lib/severity.test.mjs — anchor test alongside the existing
4-critical=93 anchor: asserts riskScore({info: 50}) === 0,
riskScore({info: 1000}) === 0, verdict({info: 100}) === 'ALLOW',
riskBand(riskScore({info: 500})) === 'Low'.
Decision: skip the optional `infoScore()` helper from the brief. No
current consumer would use it; doc-only fix keeps API surface minimal.
Revisit if a consumer emerges.
Tests: 1522 → 1523 (+1 anchor block, 4 assertions). All green.
Closes A2 of v7.1.0 critical-review patch (docs/critical-review-2026-04-20.md):
- B4 (severity JSDoc): 4 critical = 93, not 90. Fixed in scanners/lib/severity.mjs:23
and CHANGELOG.md v7.0.0 tier description. The actual computation has always been
93 (70 + log2(5)*10 = 93.22 → round); only the docs were wrong.
- §5.4 co-monotonicity: new sweep test in tests/lib/severity.test.mjs over 15
representative count vectors. Asserts that (verdict, riskBand) agree under the
v7.0.0 contract for every case — catches future drift between riskScore tiers,
verdict cutoffs, and riskBand cutoffs. Includes a B4 anchor test (riskScore
{critical: 4} === 93) so doc/code drift fails loudly.
- B8 (CaMeL claims toned down): post-session-guard.mjs:646 comment block and
CLAUDE.md:184 Defense Philosophy bullet now describe the implementation
honestly — opportunistic byte-matching of truncated output fingerprints
(first 200 bytes, SHA-256/16-hex), not semantic data-flow tracking.
Trivially bypassed by mutation, summarisation, or re-encoding. Inspired by
CaMeL (DeepMind 2025), but not a CaMeL capability-tracking implementation.
Tests: 1495 → 1511 (+16: 15 sweep cases + 1 B4 anchor). All green.
Final commit in the trustworthy-scoring series. Bundles verdict cutoff
alignment, the last suite of tests, and all documentation touch-points
that quote version numbers or describe v7.0.0 behaviour.
Verdict/band co-monotonicity
- `scanners/lib/severity.mjs` — verdict cutoffs moved from 61/21 to 65/15
so `BLOCK >= 65`, `WARNING >= 15` locks onto the v2 riskBand() boundaries.
Prevents "BLOCK / Medium band" contradictions under the v2 formula.
Scanner hardening (bug fixes from v7.0.0 testing)
- `scanners/entropy-scanner.mjs` — `policy_source` now uses
`existsSync('.llm-security/policy.json')` instead of value-based check.
Old heuristic always reported 'policy.json' because DEFAULT_POLICY now
carries an `entropy.thresholds` section.
- `scanners/lib/file-discovery.mjs` — `.sass` and GPU shader extensions
(`.glsl, .frag, .vert, .shader, .wgsl`) added to TEXT_EXTENSIONS. Without
this, shader files were invisible to file-discovery, so they were never
counted as skipped by the entropy-scanner extension filter.
Tests
- `tests/scanners/entropy-context.test.mjs` (new, 24 tests) — A. File-ext
skip (4), B. Line-level rules 11-17 (8), C. Policy overrides (3).
Fixtures generate 80-char base64 payloads at runtime via
`crypto.randomBytes` to dodge the plugin's own pre-edit credential hook
on the test source.
- `tests/lib/severity.test.mjs` — rewritten with v2 scoring table (70
tests total, was 52).
- `tests/lib/output.test.mjs:243` — "1 critical = score 80" under v2
(was 25 under v1).
- Full suite: 1485/1485 green (was 1461).
Docs
- `CHANGELOG.md` — v7.0.0 entry with BREAKING CHANGES section.
- `README.md` (plugin + marketplace root) — version badge, history table,
plugin-card version string, test count.
- `CLAUDE.md` — header version, "v7.0.0 — Trustworthy scoring" summary
paragraph at the top.
- `docs/security-hardening-guide.md` — new section 6 "Calibration & false
positives" documenting v2 formula, context-aware entropy scanner,
typosquat allowlist, and §6.4 tuning workflow. Existing "Recommended
baseline" section renumbered to §7.
Version bump
- `6.6.0 -> 7.0.0` across package.json, .claude-plugin/plugin.json,
scanners/ide-extension-scanner.mjs VERSION const, README badge,
CLAUDE.md header, marketplace root README card.

New policy-loader.mjs reads .llm-security/policy.json with deep-merge against
defaults that exactly match existing hardcoded values. Integrated into all 7 hooks:
- pre-prompt-inject-scan: injection.mode (env var still takes precedence)
- post-session-guard: trifecta.mode, window_size, long_horizon_window
- pre-edit-secrets: secrets.additional_patterns
- pre-bash-destructive: destructive.additional_blocked
- pre-write-pathguard: pathguard.additional_protected
- pre-install-supply-chain: supply_chain.additional_blocked_packages
- post-mcp-verify: mcp.volume_threshold_bytes, mcp.trusted_servers
Backward compatible: no policy file = identical behavior to v5.1.0.

Harden git clone attack surface for remote scans with defense-in-depth:
Layer 1 (all platforms): 8 git config flags disable hooks, symlinks,
filter/smudge drivers, fsmonitor, local file protocol. 4 env vars
isolate from system/user git config and block interactive prompts.
Layer 2 (OS sandbox): macOS sandbox-exec and Linux bubblewrap (bwrap)
restrict file writes to only the specific temp directory. bwrap
probe-tests availability before use. Graceful fallback on Windows
and Ubuntu 24.04+ (git config hardening only).
Additional: post-clone 100MB size check, UUID-unique evidence filenames,
evidence file cleanup, cleanup guarantee in scan/plugin-audit commands.
32 new tests (1147 total).
